Music Is My King Size Bed

Posted: 29 Jun 2009 06:59 PM PDT

So, I'm not ashamed to admit it...the disposable income I do have goes to music AND the occasional music video, which I then put onto my iPod for some enjoyment on the T(rain). Here are some of my favorite music videos of the moment.

Pitbull - I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho) - Dirty, slutty good fun. The song is a bit overplayed right now, but this is my late-discovery. This is my walking around the city jam.

VV Brown - Shark In The Water - I've talked about this girl before, but I can't stop raving! Her album is out in the UK soon and this is her latest single. She looks stunning in the video!

Lady Gaga - Paparazzi - One word...E-P-I-C!!

Cobra Starship feat. Leighton Meester - Good Girls Go Bad - Fun little peak at what Leighton Meester's debut album is going to sound like. Plus Gabe Saporta from Cobra Starship is mighty cute.

Paradiso Girls feat. Lil Jon & Eve - Patron Tequila - Fabulous, fun summer pop. The girls look hot as ever.

The Killers - Dustland Fairytale - Brandon Flowers = SEX

Wale feat. Lady Gaga - Chillin' - Love Gaga in anything.

La Roux - Bulletproof - If you haven't heard of La Roux yet, CHECK them OUT NOW. They are a new act out of the UK and they're doing a small U.S. tour this summer.

Pussycat Dolls - Hush Hush; Hush Hush - Call me gay (I am gay), but I love me some PCD. This song is plenty of fun and the girls look amazing.

Freemasons feat. Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Heartbreak (Make Me A Dancer) - Sophie has been my girl ever since I saw the video for "Murder on the Dancefloor."

Gossip - Heavy Cross - Two words...Beth Ditto!

Dan Black - Symphonies - Wish he was able to release his cover of Biggie's "Hypnotize," but this is a suitable replacement single.

Paloma Faith - Stone, Cold Sober - Beautiful video, beautiful girl.

Jordin Sparks - Battlefield - Video is a little boring, but the song is still ace in my book.

Tinchy Stryder feat. Amelle Berrabah (of the Sugababes) - Never Leave You - Loved his song "Take Me Back," as well as his follow up single "Number 1." This one isn't as good as it's predecessors, but I do love me a featured vocal by a Sugababe.

Frankmusik - Confusion Girl - Love this dude! Can't wait to get his album. It's going to be fantastic! I love the appearance in the video from Aussie singer/actress Holly Valance.

David Guetta feat. Kelly Rowland - When Love Takes Over - Holy dance hit! Congrats to Kelly, who, although was dropped from her label recently, collaborated with dance genius David Guetta and put out this number 1 dance hit!

Daniel Merriweather - Red - Beautiful song. Beautiful man.
Lily Allen - Fuck You (Explicit) - Hilarious video.

Melinda Doolittle - It's Your Love Remixes

Posted: 29 Jun 2009 06:35 PM PDT

Oh the stresses of life! Once again, the delay between this post and my last is unforgivably long. I started bidding on Ebay for a "rare remix promo" of American Idol Season Six finalist, Melinda Doolittle. I typically jump at the excuse to purchase a rare promo on Ebay if there's a 1-click buy option. This time around, there wasn't that option, so I bid the minimum $10.00. Sure enough, I was out bid. I went up to about $25.00 and next thing I know, it's all the way up to $80.00! Holy shit! Quite the jump. I'm sorry, but a 7-track promo for $80.00 + shipping does not seem like a good deal to me. Such is the nature of Ebay, I guess. Remixes are by Jason Nevins, Mike Rizzo and Smashmode. Damn you, big spender!

Here's the gloriousness that I missed out on:
